Hello, The title pretty much explains all; last night, I dabbed on the back of my L. verrucosa female and a little later it excreted clear liquid from its mouth. I'm wondering what the liquid is and what caused my roach to produce it???? Thank you!

Hi Peter, Thank you for your answer! I've never used microwave to sterilize before. Instead I always boil..haha but I will try this time. I have one more question. Would it be okay to keep the Lucihormetica in the same cage with Blaberus sp.? Thanks!

Hello, I plan to get both L. verrucosa and L. subscinta and I wanted to know what they mainly feed on. Also, for the habitat, I saw a posting that they need rotting woods and leaf litters. Is it okay to provide them woods and leaf litters from local park/forest? Do I need to sterilize them (woods and leaves) before putting in the cage? If so, how do you do sterilize them? Thank you!
